Exeter Finance Opens Branches in Philadelphia and Atlanta

Company Also Joins RouteOne Platform, Expanding Dealer Access

IRVING, Texas – Exeter Finance Corp., a specialty auto finance company, announced that it has opened branches in the Philadelphia and Atlanta markets, expanding the company’s branch network and continuing its focus on local service and relationships. Additionally, Exeter announced it has completed integration with RouteOne, a web-based credit application management system that aggregates finance sources for dealers.

Exeter’s underwriting and verification teams work in local branches, rather than a centralized facility, enabling personal service and continuous access to decision-makers. Exeter also operates branches in Irving, Texas; Independence, Ohio; Paramus, N.J.; Schaumburg, Ill.; St. Louis, Mo.; and Manchester, N.H.

The integration with RouteOne means Exeter dealers may now send their credit applications electronically through the RouteOne platform, as well as access credit bureaus, verify contract statuses and manage the entire scope of their credit application process.

“As we continue to expand our network, joining the RouteOne platform will enable a greater level of ease, access and convenience for our dealers during transactions,” said Mark Floyd, Exeter CEO.

“We are pleased to be reaching more dealers and providing our brand of exceptional local underwriting, funding and relationships in the Philadelphia and Atlanta markets.”

Earlier this year, Exeter closed on a $100 million warehouse credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., which significantly increased the size of the company’s previous line of credit. The credit facility provides substantial capital for the growth of Exeter's loan portfolio and the expansion of its branch network.

Exeter reached $100 million in total originations in May.
